There are two Hanahans. One is brick ranches on quiet grids off Remount Road and Yeamans Hall Road, built in the 1960s with the laundry in the carport. The other is Tanner Plantation and the newer streets, where the appliances came with the house and are now old enough to fail. We fix both, twenty-five minutes from our West Ashley shop, with a meter and a written price.

Hanahan is compact, so once we are there the stops are close together: the older streets between Remount and Yeamans Hall Road, the loops of Otranto near the Goose Creek Reservoir, and the newer roads of Tanner Plantation off Tanner Ford Boulevard. We also cover the apartment and townhome pockets near North Rhett Avenue, where property managers book us for turnovers. Traffic on Rivers Avenue sets the schedule more than distance does, so we give windows, text when we leave the previous stop and keep the van stocked for the six machines so one trip is usually the whole job.
The 1960s ranches have small kitchens, tight utility closets and long dryer vents that snake through the attic or under the slab. Dryer calls there are about airflow and rollers. Tanner Plantation was built in one wave, so its washers, dishwashers and French-door refrigerators age in a wave too: control boards, drain pumps and ice maker modules from the same model years, failing within a season of each other. Water is treated by Charleston Water System at the Hanahan plant on the reservoir, moderately soft, so scale is rarely the answer here. Hurricane season is: a surge through the neighborhood takes out inverter boards, and a warm French-door fridge in Tanner gets a same-day window.
| Appliance | What we see most here |
|---|---|
| Refrigerators | French-door units in Tanner Plantation and Otranto with failed inverter boards or evaporator fans. In the older ranches, top-freezer models with defrost problems and iced-over coils. |
| Dryers | Long vent runs through 1960s attics, packed with humid lint, plus worn rollers and idler pulleys. In the newer subdivisions, moisture sensors coated in softener residue that stop a cycle early. |
| Washers | Front-loaders with drain pump failures and door lock faults, and top-loaders with worn suspension rods that shake the laundry closet. Rentals near North Rhett get us for the same fault twice a year. |
| Dishwashers | Builder-installed units from the mid-2000s with dead wash motors, leaking door gaskets and control boards. Not a scale market, so cloudy glasses here are usually detergent or a heater problem. |
| Ranges & ovens | Electric smooth-tops with a dead burner element or a cracked glass switch. Gas ranges near Yeamans Hall with igniters that click but will not open the valve. |
| Ice makers | Modules and fill valves on French-door units that stopped mid-summer. Frozen fill tubes after a defrost failure, and hollow cubes from a valve wearing out. |
A 1960s ranch has a dryer that runs two full cycles for one load of towels. The vent goes up through the attic and out the roof, twenty-some feet. We measure airflow at the machine, find the felt, clear the run and meter the element, which is fine. One visit, one number.
A French-door fridge bought with the house in 2008 goes warm on a Sunday after a thunderstorm trips the power twice. Monday morning we meter the inverter board and the compressor. The board took the surge, the compressor did not. We replace the board from the van, watch it pull down and leave a written warranty.
A front-loader in an Otranto house throws a drain fault every third load. The pump runs but moves nothing; a hair tie and a sock have found the impeller. We clear it, test the pump under load, and replace it because the bearing is already rough. The family has laundry back the same afternoon.

Hanahan washers come in two flavors: top-loaders in 1960s carports and utility rooms, and front-loaders installed with the house in Tanner Plantation. The first group shakes and leaks as suspension rods and tub seals wear. The second throws drain and door-lock faults. We meter the pump, lock and motor before naming the part. One written number, the $99 diagnostic inside it, and up to $20 off the repair when you book online.
| What you notice | What it usually is | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| Walks across the floor on spin | Worn suspension rods or dampers, or a machine that was never leveled | Replace the rods or dampers as a set, level it, run a full spin |
| Door will not unlock, or a code for the lock | Failed door lock assembly or a board not seeing the lock switch | Meter the lock and the board output, replace the lock, verify the cycle completes |
| Cycle stops with water in the drum | Drain pump jammed or worn, or a blocked drain hose | Clear the pump, test it under load, replace it if the bearing is rough |

The dryer calls from Hanahan's older streets are about the vent: long attic runs from the 1960s that trap humid lint and choke the airflow until the element or the fuse gives out. Tanner Plantation dryers fail on moisture sensors and heating elements instead. We check exhaust flow at the machine, meter the element and fuses, and listen to the rollers. One written number with the $99 diagnostic inside; book online and up to $20 comes off the repair.
| What you notice | What it usually is | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| Two cycles to dry a load | Blocked vent or an element that opens under heat | Measure the exhaust, clear the run, meter the element hot |
| Stops after a few minutes with damp clothes | Moisture sensor bars coated with residue, or a bad thermistor | Clean and test the sensor, meter the thermistor, replace what reads wrong |
| Squeal that gets louder as it warms | Rollers, idler pulley or a worn glide | Replace the wear parts together, check the belt, run it quiet |

Hanahan refrigerators fail in two ways. In Tanner Plantation and Otranto, French-door units of the same vintage lose inverter boards and evaporator fans, often after a storm surge. In the older ranches, top-freezers ice over from a defrost fault and go warm slowly. A warm fridge gets a same-day window six days a week. We meter the compressor, fans and defrost circuit, then write one number with the $99 diagnostic inside. Up to $20 off the repair when you book online.
| What you notice | What it usually is | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| Fresh food side warm, freezer fine | Evaporator fan out or a defrost failure blocking airflow | Check the frost pattern, meter the fan, heater and thermostat, replace what failed |
| Fridge dead after a storm, no hum | Inverter board or main control taken by the surge | Meter the board outputs and the compressor windings, replace the board, confirm pulldown |
| Water on the floor in front | Clogged defrost drain or a cracked drain pan, sometimes the water line to the ice maker | Clear the drain, replace the pan or line, check the door seal |

Most of Hanahan cooks on electric. Smooth-tops in the newer subdivisions lose a burner element or a glass switch; coil ranges in the older ranches lose a receptacle or the bake element. Gas ranges near Yeamans Hall show up with igniters that click and never light. We meter the elements, switches and igniter, check oven temperature with a thermometer and give you one written number, $99 diagnostic inside. Book online for up to $20 off the repair.
| What you notice | What it usually is | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| One burner dead, the rest fine | Failed element, burnt receptacle or a bad infinite switch | Meter the element and switch, replace the failed part, test each burner |
| Oven heats slow or bakes uneven | Bake element open, convection fan out, or a drifted temperature sensor | Meter the element and sensor, replace, verify with an oven thermometer |
| Gas igniter clicks, no flame | Weak igniter, cracked spark electrode or a valve not receiving the call | Meter igniter current, check the valve and module, replace what failed |

Hanahan dishwashers are mostly the builder-installed units of the mid-2000s, now past their prime: wash motors that hum and do nothing, door gaskets that drip onto hardwood, control boards that will not start a cycle. Water here is moderately soft, so cloudy glasses point to a heater or detergent, not scale. We meter the motor, heater and latch, then write one number with the $99 diagnostic inside. Up to $20 off the repair for booking online.
| What you notice | What it usually is | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| Hums, then no wash | Wash motor seized or its capacitor failed | Meter the motor and capacitor, replace, run a full wash |
| Puddle at the front corners | Worn door gasket or a leaking pump seal | Replace the gasket or the seal, test for leaks with a full tub |
| Will not start, lights flash | Door latch not registering or a control board fault | Test the latch and board, replace the failed part, confirm a cycle runs end to end |

Ice maker calls in Hanahan cluster in the French-door units of Tanner Plantation and Otranto: a module that stops mid-summer, a fill tube frozen solid after a defrost problem, or hollow cubes from a valve wearing out. Scale is not the culprit here; the water is soft. We meter the valve and module, check the fill volume and thaw the line. One written number with the $99 diagnostic inside; book online and up to $20 comes off the repair.
| What you notice | What it usually is | What we do |
|---|---|---|
| No ice, bin empty for days | Module failed or the fill tube frozen | Test the module, thaw and check the tube, replace the module if it will not cycle |
| Cubes small or hollow | Fill valve weak or a kinked supply line | Measure the fill, replace the valve, straighten or replace the line |
| Ice dumps into the bin as one block | Freezer running warm, or a slow cycle from a failing module | Check freezer temperature and the defrost system, replace the module if the timing is off |
